Macron, G7 consensus not to change position on Moscow, efforts continue for Kiev

Among G7 leaders, there remains an unchanged consensus that ‘we must not change our position on Russia and must maintain our efforts for Ukraine,’ said French President Emmanuel Macron, responding to reporters at the end of the videoconference with G7 leaders. The blockade of the Strait of Hormuz ‘in no way justifies the lifting of sanctions’ against Russia, said French President Emmanuel Macron at the end of today’s G7 summit via videoconference.
